Back to Spirit City

Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Jun Xuehan slowly sat up from the bed, smoothed her hair, and said, "Xue'er, now that you're back, come and try it. I made this especially for you."

Jun Xuehan got up and sat at the dining table, picked up a bowl and chopsticks and handed them to Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue went straight to Jun Xuehan's side, took the bowl and chopsticks that were handed to her, picked up the delicacies in front of her, and began to taste them.

As the delicious food entered her stomach, Qian Renxue felt a warm current flowing through her limbs and bones, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"Is this a delicacy made with Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?" Qian Renxue blinked her beautiful eyes a few times and asked softly.

"Hmm, how about the dishes made with the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Silver Heart Fox? My cooking skills aren't bad, are they?" Jun Xuehan smiled and put some more into Qian Renxue's bowl.

"It's alright, just so-so," Qian Renxue gave a haughty assessment.

Jun Xuehan didn't pay any attention. After taking a few bites, she quietly looked at Qian Renxue.

"Why are you staring at me instead of eating?" Qian Renxue asked, noticing Jun Xuehan's gaze.

"No, just looking at you is enough. After all, there's a saying: beauty is food for the eyes." Jun Xuehan's expression was very serious.

"Get lost, hurry up and eat. I should be able to finish dealing with everything at the palace in three to five days, then we can go back to the Spirit Hall." Qian Renxue rolled her eyes and continued eating the delicious food in front of her.

"Three to five days, which is roughly the same timeframe I predicted." Jun Xuehan nodded slightly, her expression calm and without any surprise.

"By the way, Zhu Zhuqing, what do you plan to do? Will you enter our Worship Hall or the Pope's Palace?" Qian Renxue asked casually.

"Let's go to the Pope's Palace. I'll go find her teacher and have Elder Gui Mei teach her," Jun Xuehan said.

"What, are the elders of our Worship Hall inferior to those of their Pope's Palace? I think the Fourth Worship Elder is quite suitable to teach her as well." Qian Renxue pouted and looked at Jun Xuehan.

"Of course not. Most of the elders in the Worship Hall are in seclusion. It would be inappropriate for them to teach Zhu Zhuqing rashly. In comparison, Elder Gui Mei of the Pope's Palace would be more suitable." Jun Xuehan smiled bitterly and said, "Xue'er, actually, your teacher is also a person with a tragic fate. The Spirit Hall is one entity. There's no need to make the relationship between the Worship Hall and the Pope's Palace so strained. We are of the same origin, why should we fight each other so fiercely?"

Jun Xuehan. His status in the Spirit Hall was actually quite awkward. Strictly speaking, he belonged to the Worship Hall, but he was also a disciple of Pope Bibi Dong.

However, the problem lies in the fact that the people of the Worship Hall and the Pope's Palace don't get along. Jun Xuehan is caught in the middle, and it would be wrong for her to side with either side. Therefore, Jun Xuehan's position is actually quite special and awkward.

It is precisely because of this identity that there are some things he cannot say directly, because if things go wrong, he will be disliked by both sides.

Now, the situation is even more awkward, because the relationship between the two has been significantly upgraded. On one side is her savior and future daughter-in-law, and on the other side is her teacher and future mother-in-law.

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's smile vanished instantly, and she said, "Xuehan, what do you mean by this?"

Seeing Qian Renxue's unhappy expression, Jun Xuehan immediately gave a wry smile and said, "Xue'er, I think we can try to change the relationship between the Worship Hall and the Pope's Palace. After all, sometimes a powerful force is destroyed from within."

Despite her words, Jun Xuehan didn't actually have much hope. The reason was simple: Great Worship Elder Qian Daoliu was now oblivious to everything else and focused solely on cultivating Qian Renxue into a god.

Both Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong have proud personalities. If the relationship between the two sides is to be completely eased, firstly, Bibi Dong's obsession must be dispelled, and secondly, one of them must bow down to the other.

But whether it's Qian Renxue or Bibi Dong, it's practically impossible for them to bow down to each other.

"That makes sense, let's eat," Qian Renxue said, and then that was the end of it.

Seeing this, Jun Xuehan didn't say anything more. After all, things are never accomplished overnight; they need to be done little by little.

After finishing dinner, the two sat cross-legged on the bed and began a clear cultivation practice.

Time flies, and the four days passed like flowing water, Gone Forever.

In the shop in Heaven Dou City, Jun Xuehan looked at the two different styles of Fox Fur Coat that had been made and nodded in satisfaction.

Although the two styles are different, unsurprisingly, both are very beautiful.

After paying, Jun Xuehan packed them into an exquisite box, then placed them into her Soul Tool, and walked straight out of the shop towards the mansion.

Upon returning to the mansion, Jun Xuehan glanced at a carriage parked at the entrance, smiled, and walked straight into the mansion.

They would return to the Spirit Hall as soon as Qian Renxue finished her business, so the carriage was prepared in the morning.

Jun Xuehan sat down at the stone table in the courtyard, looked at Zhu Zhuqing, and asked, "Have you packed your things? We're leaving today."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly and said, "There's nothing to pack. Just leave."

Jun Xuehan stretched and said, "Okay, that's all that matters."

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Jun Xuehan, very curious about where they were going, but Jun Xuehan didn't say, and Zhu Zhuqing didn't ask either.

As time passed, noon soon arrived.

Qian Renxue appeared at the doorway and said to Jun Xuehan, "Xuehan, we can go now."

As she spoke, Qian Renxue boarded the carriage first, while Jun Xuehan waved to Zhu Zhuqing and then walked towards the carriage as well.

After the two boarded the carriage, the horses neighed and headed out of Heaven Dou City.

Inside the carriage, Jun Xuehan lay down, resting her head on Qian Renxue's lap, and asked softly, "Xue'er, didn't you invite She Long and the others?"

Qian Renxue watched his actions, glanced at Zhu Zhuqing without showing any emotion, and said, "There's no need to call them. We're just going back to Spirit City. Although the journey is quite long, it's not dangerous."

As she spoke, Qian Renxue's gaze remained subtly fixed on Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing also turned her gaze over. She naturally knew what Spirit City was, and she could roughly guess where the two of them came from.
